Suppose that E and E' denote real Banach spaces with dimension at least 2, that D subset of E and D' subset of E' are domains, and that f : D -> D' is a homeomorphism. In this paper, we prove the following subinvariance property for the class of uniform domains: suppose that f is a freely quasiconformal mapping and that D' is uniform. Then the image f (D-1) of every uniform subdomain D-1 in D under f is still uniform. This result answers an open problem of Vaisala in the affirmative. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
